Ashe's spitting cobra
Buufin ama tufidAshe's spitting cobra is a large venomous snake from eastern and northeastern Africa. It is the largest of all the spitting cobras, and it can spray venom from a distance as well as bite. Its venom can cause blindness if it gets into the eyes and not treated at once.1

Sida loo aqoonsado
- Very heavily built, with a big head1
- Colour ranges from light grey and pale mustard to dark brown1
- Pale along the belly, sometimes with slight speckling or blotches1
- A dark brown band across the throat1
- Average length about 1.3 to 2.0 m including the tail, making it the largest spitting cobra1
Inta badan lagu khaldaa: It was once thought to be a brown form of the black-necked spitting cobra. It was classed as a separate species in 2007.1
Awoodda sunta
Wuxuu weerarkiisa ku buufiyaa ama ku tufaa dareere mudda.
Maxay samaysaa suntiisa (qaniin ama mudid)?
Its venom is neurotoxic, meaning it attacks the nerves, and cytotoxic, meaning it destroys cells. It is very similar to the venom of other spitting cobras, but it can inject a much larger volume in one bite. Its venom also causes strong tissue death around a wound.1
Intee buu dadka khatar ugu yahay?
Khatarta dadka: Aad u khatar badanWuxuu dili karaa qof aan daaweyn helin.The venom has low whole-body toxicity, so survival is very likely with proper treatment. Survivors may be left disfigured by tissue damage. If venom gets into the eyes and is not treated immediately, blindness is likely. Even with antivenom, amputation may be needed after a full dose from a large specimen.1
War wanaagsan: dhakhaatiirtu waxay leeyihiin daawo (antivenom) ama daaweyn tan loogu talagalay.1
Muxuu sameeyaa marka uu baqo?
It is very defensive and does not hesitate to spit when it feels cornered. It can keep spitting for hours without running out of venom straight away.1
Haddii uu qaniino ama tufo
- If venom gets into the eyes, rinse them straight away with water or another bland liquid, as delay can cause permanent blindness. Whether the person has been bitten or spat at, they should see a doctor as soon as possible. Treatment is the appropriate antivenom, SAVP polyvalent from South African Vaccine Producers, and the dose may need to be higher than for the average black-necked spitting cobra bite.1

Badbaado
- Weligaa ha taaban, ha qaban, hana ku ciyaarin xayawaan duurjoog ah, xitaa mid yar, xitaa haddii uu u muuqdo inuu hurdo ama dhintay.
- Meel u bannee. Haddii aad mid la kulanto, deg, tartiib dib ugu noqo oo u daa inuu jidkiisa maro.
- Haddii mid ku qaniino ama sun indhahaaga ku tufo: deg, ha dhaqaaqin, wac lambarka gurmadka degdegga ah (112, 000, 911) ama si degdeg ah u tag isbitaalka. Xusuuso sida uu u egyahay, sawir ayaa caawiya.
Kuma raadinayo. Suntiisa wuxuu u isticmaalaa inuu cunto ku qabsado ama isku difaaco, wuxuuna aad u door bidaa inuu dhuunto. Wax badan oo ku saabsan badbaadada
